The Nike Prefontaine Classic has kicked off with top athletes from all over the world participating in the competitions. One of the most anticipated appearances is that of Sha’Carri Richardson. After her Tokyo Olympics ban, Richardson is back in contention for the women’s 100-meter race in Oregon, the track she won during the US trials. The sprinter failed a doping test due to traces of Marijuana but the American is back. And by the looks of it, back with a bang.
